Set the entry and bolt the sections together. Double check alignment with string line.Select All8. Entry SettingPosition the entry, verify alignment and bolt. [Video] Shim and lag the entry conveyor to the floor. 40’ entry (14) ½”x4” – 60’ entry (20) ½”x4” concrete anchor bolts Set Starter box and power unit (Refer to the layout drawing) Electrical and air connections to be supplied by customers qualified electrician and compressor vendor. Set load frames. Weld and lag (4) ½”x4” per 1 and 2 tier load frames (6) ½”x4” per 3 tier load frame. Touch up the paint on the load frame welds. Weld the load frame guards to both ends and both sides on the end load frames. Touch up with paint.Select All9. Air Line ConnectionsConnect the air lines and electrical connections on the Load Frames and Conveyor Sections. [Video] Connect the air lines between the two entry conveyor sections. Run the airlines out to the load frame cylinders. Secure and cut to length. Attach lines to the cylinder. Connect the electrical connections between the entry conveyor sections. Match the wires’ colors. Tug to test the connection. Secure loose wires under the conveyor with tie wraps.Select All10. Discharge PocketsInstall the Pockets paying close attention to the precise measurement requirement. [Video] Place the angle irons on the bottom of the pocket, weld them in place, and touch them up with paint prior to placing them against the conveyor. Place pockets (Refer to the layout drawing for measurements and placement) This is a critical measurement. The space between the measuring table side plate and the front of the pocket surface is precisely 7 1/4”. When placing pockets for double discharge. Be sure both sides are symmetrical per the layout drawing. Lag pockets down. (4) x ½” x 4” concrete anchor bolts per pocket.Select All11. Light Curtain InstallationThe Safety Light Curtain is optional during the sale. Follow these steps if the machine has been delivered with a Light Curtain System. [Video] Light Curtain Option NOT EQUIPPED -or- Remove Light Curtains from their shipping location on the bottom of the conveyor. Locate and remove the light curtain reset buttons. Temporarily place the curtains. Refer to the electrical drawing for the placement of the reset light curtain button.Select All12. Hoses and SealsRoute, Connect, and Verify the seals and hoses along the conveyor. [Video] Feed the seal tights from the measuring conveyor under the conveyor and through the shear. Remove the hydraulic positioner hose and feed it under the conveyor and the shear. To be attached to the power unit. Clean up lines under the conveyor by zip tying and trimming ties for a professional appearance.Select All13. Stand Down Electrical Safety VerificationCritical Safety Step [Video] Check that there is no power to the stand-alone starter box.Select All14. Continuing Starter Box and Power Unit InstallationProceed only after you have verified there is no electric power at the stand-alone starter box.[Video] Run the seal tight from the entry conveyer for the conveyor motors to the stand-alone electrical cabinet. Gather up and secure excess wires, then run the black wires and make the electrical connections for the MSPs. Run the green wire for the ground to the wiring terminal. and follow the labels for the blue wires. Run the bottom seal tight from the shear’s electrical cabinet to the stand-alone electrical cabinet and make the connections following the wire labels. Connect the cable running from the bottom of the stand-alone electric cabinet to the top plug on the hydraulic tank. Connect the cable running from the power unit to the bottom of the stand-alone electrical cabinet. Connect the seal-tight cable running from the entry to the proximity box on the shear. Secure the cable in the provided bracket. Connect the seal-tight running from the shear motor to the stand-alone electrical cabinet.Select All15. Air SupplyContinue with Air Supply Connections. [Video] Connect the main air supply from under the measuring conveyor to the shear. Connect the air hose from the “T” fitting to the valve on the shear. If the optional light curtains are included, run the reset buttons under the pocket frames and mount them. You may need to remove the switch box. Plumb the airlines to each pocket. Air lines are labeled by the pocket number. Air Line #1 should be the furthest from the conveyor or the shortest pocket. Secure and clean up the cables.Select All16. Hydraulic Line InstallationGrab a bucket and some rags because this step can cause a spill if not managed correctly. [Video] Connect the main hydraulic lines.

Test the squaring stop on the shear. Test all the pockets are opening correctly. Replumb any if necessary. Test all the conveyors are working in the right direction. Test the shear. If light curtains are included, be sure they are error-free and align if necessary. Test the load frames’ arms, preload them, and let down the arms on the entry.Select All19. Cycle Load TestSatisfied with the Prefllight tests, proceed to a full cycle test. [Video] Dry run a full cycle of load, convey, shear, and discharge. Repeat this test cycle a few times to double-check that all systems are working.Select All20. Scrap Bin System InstallationNow that the equipment is in working order, install the Scrap Bin. [Video] Position scrap bin track under shear. Set the bin on the track. Be sure the bin is centered from the right and left side plates. Leave about 1/4″ of clearance from the front of the shear so bars won’t fall out the front. Lag the scrap bin track down using (4) x ½”x4” concrete anchor bolts.Select All21.
